Improving Tanzanian student nurse-midwives' knowledge, skills and attitude in postpartum hemorrhage prevention through simulation-based education: a pre-post quasi experimental study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal deaths in Tanzania, highlighting the critical need for effective training for student nurse-midwives in ordinary diploma programs. The study aimed to determine the changes in knowledge, skills, self-confidence, and satisfaction in preventing and managing postpartum hemorrhage among student nurse-midwives after the simulation-based education method is being used.

Methods

A pre-post quasi-experimental study design without a control group was conducted to assess the impact of simulation-based education on student nurse-midwives' knowledge, skills, self-confidence, and satisfaction regarding the prevention and management of postpartum hemorrhage at one college of health and allied sciences in the northern Tanzania.
